A magazine is a printed periodical, typically centered around a particular theme or subject. You can subscribe to magazine and have it delivered to you on a regular schedule, or you can purchase individual issues at a bookstore or newsstand!

Why do you ask?

Oh, someone a while ago was talking about burning them for firewood and I meant to ask but I forgot. [ Caspar likes to do things IMMEDIATELY and couldn't because he was in the middle of a conversation, and therefore... whoops. ]

Thanks, Momo! It's still really weird how books and stuff are printed by machines. Using this thing is weird but somehow not as weird.

It is true that many consider print media to be a dying industry, but I think there will always be a place for books and the like.

Oh, yes, I suppose you must come from a society that hasn't invented the printing press yet! I can imagine that would be strange for you.

I figured you would be the book type.

It sure is convienient, though! Everything here moves so much faster, making books, talking to people, moving places. You've even got machines to make up for not having pegasuses and wyverns! AND YOU HAVE MICROWAVES DO YOU KNOW HOW AMAZING MICROWAVES ARE?

What is that supposed to mean?

[ Are you saying books are BAD, Caspar? ]

I guess I never thought about the convenience of a microwave. But it is rather useful, isn't it?

That you work hard and study a lot! I'm better at the practical stuff than the booklearning, but everybody has different strengths.

[ Caspar has 0 judgmental bones in his body. Also he's already forgotten what he was actually talking about. ]

I don't mind cooking but I'm really bad at it. Stuffing food in the microwave and having it be ready so fast is SO GOOD.

I do usually have top marks in my class on written exams. It's the practical side of things that I struggle with more.

[ Like having a mini-panic attack in the middle of her final... Not her proudest moment. ]

I'm not that good a cook, either. I can make tea just fine, and I know how to bake, but back home I just relied on our chefs to make most of our food.

See! I knew it. But hey, if you ever need help praciticing the practical stuff, let me know.

Tell me about it. Before I went to the Academy, our cook barely let me in the kitchen, but I never went hungry! I don't know what I would have done once I graduated...

I would appreciate that a lot! I don't want my hero skills to get rusty while I'm here!

OH, that reminds me! I have your weapons ready for you. How should I get them to you?

Why don't we do both at once? Let's meet up! I can test them out by sparring with you.

Oh yes! That's a great idea.

Where would you like to meet? I would offer my backyard to do it, but Jeopardy is kind of out of the way...

Good question. I don't even know if there's any good places to train here.

There are training rooms at the Hall of Justice, but I'm not sure if they would allow someone who isn't a Justice League member to use them. I can try asking Blue Beetle if that would be okay?

Oh yeah, they're the group of heroes that require members not to kill people, right?

[ Caspar: doesn't know what a magazine is but absolutely learned all he could about the local superheroes. ]

I met Blue Beetle once but I don't think he'll remember me, I was a dog at the time.

...Yes. Though I don't believe any of the other Hero teams present actually advocate for killing people, if it can be avoided.

[ At least, she hopes not. ]

He is a great hero, and a good teacher! We used to live in the same house, when I was on this world last.

Yeah, I got told that's the rule here. Lectured, more like.

[ ...Caspar... ]

Whoa, really? That's amazing! What's he like?

You had to be lectured about not killing people?

[ Caspar!!! ]

He is very kind, and has a lot of experience, both in being a hero, and in dealing with everything this world can throw in your way. He has been here for longer than anyone else I know.

All I said was that I wished I could have killed the Death Knight before I got brought here and people got on my case for it! Things work differently in my world!

[ somewhere in an alternate universe, Ashe "hey caspar maybe killing people isn't the solution to everything" Ubert just got a headache ]

Huh, I want to meet this guy for real! He sounds great!

Yes. It certainly sounds like things work very differently...

[ You can't just kill people, Caspar! Even if they are villains! ]

Perfect! I'll make a note to introduce the two of you next opportunity I get!

It's fine, I get that there's other ways of doing things here.

[ Caspar shoving the dozens of NPCs he's killed under a rug going it's fine, it's fine. ]

That would be great! Thanks, Momo, you're the best!

Yes. Well. It's good that you're learning.

Oh, it's nothing, really! I'm sure you would do the same if our positions were reversed.

In the meantime, if you have any more questions about things like magazines, feel free to contact me again.
